Like potato chips - who can eat just one?

Why not an East Coast AND a West Coast ZFest? California / Nevada area in the spring and New England in the fall. And stay away from holiday weekends altogether. Announce the dates and locations a year in advance so everyone can book vacation time / travel time / take a break from retirement time, whatever far enough ahead to make it happen.

No reason folks can't go to both or just one. Whatever works for you works for the good of the Z community. I for one would have loved to have gone to Spartanburg but distance, dollars and tie-in with the Labor Day Holiday all took turns preventing me from attending. With two events and no holiday considerations and my choice of travel distances, I could participate.

Re: The ZSCCA Board of Directors...

We would love to go to Texas but NOT in September. Being HOT and sweaty is not our idea of a fun weekend. We just spent a few weeks in the TX hill country in May and although we enjoyed the visit, we wish we went in April. Having the a/c on in the Z3 is counterproductive but 100 degree heat is just not acceptable. No choice. Scott, I'm a nobody but you need to reconsider Labor day in Texas. Others will chime in.

Re: The ZSCCA Board of Directors...

Also, Memorial Day is just as bad. It is brutally HOT in Texas in late May. Do a search on the Weather Channel or any weather site and punch in the average monthly temps, and see what we are talking about. As I said in my last post, we just lived through it. We are not wimps. We lived in FL our entire lives. Try living through 40 years of FL summers! You see why we live in NC now. Convertibles and triple digit temps don't work for many. If we were still in our teens and twenties we wouldn't even care. Not many Z3 owners are in that category from what we observed at past homecomings.
